In the United States, I'd probably name Oregon City, the famous end of the Oregon Trail and the first city founded west of the Rocky Mountains during the pioneer era. Its population is only 37,000.

Nantucket Massachusetts 10k

Aspen Colorado 7k

Jackson Hole Wyoming 10k

Key West Florida 25k

Probably all more famous and smaller population.
